Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass: An American Slave

Frederick Douglass

CliffsNotes on the Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass: An American Slave explores the first-hand account of one man's struggle for freedom. Born into captivity, Douglass — like most slaves — can only guess where or when he was born or who his father was. The narrative details how Douglass's determination to learn to read (it was illegal in the South to teach slaves to read) helped him overcome the cruelty and hypocrisy of slavery and become a free man.
